Keith Kinkaid to man the crease for Devils on Tuesday

The New Jersey Devils will start goalie Keith Kinkaid on Tuesday against the Philadelphia Flyers.

What It Means:

The Devils and Flyers have both been eliminated from the playoffs, so New Jersey wants to get a look at their unrestricted free agent backup goalie to figure out if they'll retain him next year. In 24 games played this season, Kinkaid holds a .916 save percentage and 2.70 goals-allowed average with a 7-12-3 record.

numberFire's models project a 42.0 percent chance for Kinkaid to earn the win tonight. We expect him to make 26.7 saves and allow 2.4 goals as the 17th-best fantasy option at goalie on Tuesday (out of 26 starters).
